Major facilitator-type transporter; part of the gene cluster that mediates the biosynthesis of elsinochromes, pigments consisting of at least four interconvertible tautomers (A, B, C and D) that have a core phenolic quinone to which various side chains are attached and which play an important role in fungal pathogenesis (PubMed:18957608). Once elsinochrome is synthesized, it must be exported outside the fungal cells, which is probably accomplished by the ECT1 transporter, to avoid toxicity (PubMed:21199563).

Belongs to the major facilitator superfamily. Nitrate/nitrite porter (TC 2.A.1.8) family.
